Whether you’re a Clara Barton Camp alumna or a Camp Joslin alumnus, you’ll always have a special place at The Barton Center—a camp to call your own for life. No matter your age or how far away you live, we’re always here for YOU!
We absolutely love our alumni and welcome you back to camp with open arms—for alumni gatherings, volunteer opportunities at weekend and summer programs, and special events throughout the year. Each time you return, you bring the spirit and traditions of Barton to life all over again.
Our alumni community plays a vital role in supporting today’s campers—helping raise campership funds, volunteering your time, and sharing your stories to inspire the next generation. You keep Clara Barton Camp and Camp Joslin in your hearts all year long, and your continued connection ensures that future campers experience the same joy, friendship, and confidence you did.
Please Stay in Touch so we can help you reconnect with old friends and keep you up to date on all things Barton!
